The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is designed for those who are willing to give up some comfort to obtain the ultimate driving experience out of the 430 lineup.  Ferrari was able to shave 220 lbs. over the standard F430 while increasing horsepower from 483 to 510.  Expect a 0-60mph in the low 3's with a low 11 second 1/4 mile time.

Superb performance both on and off the track is assured by a series of cutting-edge solutions. There is the latest software - F1 Superfast - which reduces gearchange times to just 60 milliseconds, and new traction control which, for the first time, combines the E-Diff electronic differential and the F1-Trac traction and stability control in a single integrated system.

Featuring the same 510 hp as the Scuderia coupe, the Spider 16M is capable of a 0-60mph of 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 195mph.  Also helping those times is the 180 lbs. Ferrari cut off the base Spider lowering the curb weight to under 3000 lbs.  Ferrari claims it is the fastest open-top model they've ever tested on the Fiorano track (F50 included!).  This extremely limited edition 430 features a number of unique items such as a numbered plaque on the dash letting your lucky passengers know you own one of only 499 examples.  Also unique is a roll-bar with carbon-fibre outer shell and a specific new generation audio system that can be combined with the removable customised Ferrari iPod Touch 16 GB with central dock just in front of the dashboard. 
 

The racing version of the F430 weighs in at just 2700 lbs. as weight has been reduced in every area of the car.  The F430 Challenge is also the first Ferrari competition car to feature Carbon Ceramic Brakes.
